The Dragon Slays Upstart Challenger

The master showed the upstart why he is still Indonesia’s best boxer. Chris John defeated Daud “Cino” Jordan by unanimous decision to retain his World Boxing Association featherweight super championship at the Jakarta International Expo, Indonesia on Sunday, 17 Apr. In a bout billed as a changing of the guard, Chris , 31, used nearly every trick in the book to defeat 23-year-old Daud, who did not back down from the champion but was clearly outclassed by the man known as “The Dragon.” The judges scored the bout 116-112, 116-112 and 117-111.
